11/6/2004: Visual display of the electoral divide

[BigV]

Hello Bruce,

Thanks for the welcome. I refrained from posting the links not because I am coy, but because the "rules" warn that first posts containing links get forwarded to the twilight zone, and I wished to avoid that fate. My apologies for the obliqueness of the post.

Here are some sample images I found. (I hope)

*whew*

Top image, red states=beggar states, blue states=donor states for federal tax dollars

bottom image red states=beggar states, green states=donor states, gray states=neutral ($1 collected:$1 received)

Negative. Here is the link containing the map image.

Yours,

Take a look at the two maps, one shows PA a beggar and the other shows PA a donor?
Now look at your first link....The text describes which states are beggars and donors compared to the map which is the 2000 election. Notice NM is blue but it's #3 on the beggar list.
